+Traditional parallel iterative solvers are based on fine-grain computations that frequently require data exchanges between computing nodes and have global synchronizations that penalize the scalability. Particularly, they are more penalized on large scale architectures or on distributed platforms composed of distant clusters interconnected by a high-latency network. It is therefore imperative to develop coarse-grain based algorithms to reduce the communications in the parallel iterative solvers. Two  possible solutions consists either in using asynchronous iterative methods~\cite{ref18} or to use multisplitting algorithms. In this paper, we will reconsider the use of a multisplitting method. In opposition to traditional multisplitting method that suffer from slow convergence, as proposed in~\cite{huang1993krylov}, the use of a minimization process can drastically improve the convergence.
